Shweshwe fabrics

When you know about something great the best thing to do is pass it on! Well I’m here to tell you about some fantastic fabrics I discovered at the Saskatoon quilt show vendors market. It is Shweshwe fabric from South Africa and the amazing online business that carries it here in Canada is Meerkat Trading in Elora, Ontario. They are celebrating their 2nd year of online business and they are the nicest people you could ever meet. I would highly recommend checking out their website at www.meerkatshweshwe.com to see the full line of fabric. I purchased some of the newest cottons in the bright spectrum but I’m wishing I had also picked up some of the classic indigos as well. Next time for sure!

until tomorrow, carol

  1. Hello Carol
    Thank you for the post. We had a wonderful time at the Saskatoon Quilt Show in October meeting the wonderful prairie quilters. I am looking forward to seeing your shweshwe creations.
    Yours piecefully

    Hi Celeste,
    You are very welcome! Your booth in Saskatoon was a big hit and I’m excited to get working with my beautiful shweshwe fabrics in a brand new quilt I’ve designed for the New Year. I will certainly keep you posted on the progress.

    This shweshwe fabric is so beautiful, Tammy. I’m convinced you would love the indigos.
